Great Space and Mediocre Food

Craving some good ole' fashioned cajun food? Look elsewhere. This is not the place for you, despite what you may hear or read in local blogs.

Craving some good ole' fashioned cajun food? Look elsewhere. This is not the place for you, despite what you may hear or read in local blogs. Firstly the good: the space and decor are absolutely beautiful. They've really nailed it on the look and the atmosphere. There is typically also not a long wait. Unfortunately, we don't just go to restaurants for the aesthetic. The food was pretty awful. We had a starter called "dips with nachos" that comes with a small bowl full of greasy but admittedly tasty homemade chips/crisps. The dips, though, were guacamole (most definitely not homemade; the kind you buy at a grocery store that is pumped with preservatives so that it doesn't brown), french onion dip (also store-bought), and a less-than-mediocre salsa that had too much sugar in it. Surprise, surprise - that wasn't homemade either. The main course was some sort of jambalaya with angel hair pasta that was served for two. It was tasteless, oily, and took about 45 minutes to come out. We barely finished it. Worst of all - it's very expensive. We paid around $600 HKD for two people who didn't finish what was mediocre food. Too bad too, because it  really is a  beautiful space.
